We have a new Rookling!

It's called Greenwing as it was found on mayday eve, the day of the green man, and also because Merlin the rook, in Deepak Chopra's book The Return of Merlin is referred to as "Whitewing" when he becomes independant of the colony, so Greenwing is also a sign of independance.

It is a lovely little thing! Very, very tatty wings! It's very large, Jo thinks it must have been the largest of the litter and all the rest were jealous of it so they pushed it out of the nest!

Now we've got another terror to look after I'm sort of hoping we dont get too many more!!

I imagine it must be quite strange for Merlin too, if he's got a nest full of these things somewhere, it must be amazing for him!
